This assignment is a culmination of the assignments created in Weeks 2 and 5. Students are expected to incorporate the faculty feedback received on the Week 2 and Week 5 assignments to create the final presentation. The Week 7 presentation is an audio/video recording that is developed using Kaltura. The final presentation will include the student’s voice (audio) along with face clearly visible (video). Students have the opportunity to demonstrate professional presentation/communication and deep knowledge regarding pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment about a selected disease process.
Activity Learning Outcomes
Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the ability to:
- Demonstrate professional presentation/communication skills.
- Demonstrate understanding of the risk factors for disease development. (CO 3)
- Demonstrate understanding of the progression of a disease from the initial injury to the defect in the tissue, organ and system functioning. (CO 1, 2)
- Link development of presenting signs and symptoms of disease to changes to tissue, organ and system functioning. (CO 3)
- Describe how the disease is diagnosed (CO 1, 2)
- Describe pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions for disease management (CO 4)
- Describe the role of the health care provider in the prevention of the disease (CO 4)
Requirements:
Content Criteria:
- Introduce the disease with a brief definition and description.
- Discuss the Risk Factors and the connection to the Etiology of the initial injury to the cell/tissue/organ.
- Discuss health care provider implications for prevention of the disease.
- Show the progression from the initial injury to the defect in the tissue, organ and system functioning.
- Link changes in the tissue, organ, and system functioning to the initial presenting signs and symptoms seen in primary care of the disease.
- Provide a brief description of how the disease is diagnosed.
- Provide a brief description of the pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions used to treat and manage the disease.
- Summarizes the disease on final slide with concluding remarks; includes implication for nurse practitioner practice.
- Utilizes at least two current (within 5 years), peer-reviewed scholarly sources to support presentation content.
- Reference slide and in-text citations depict references correctly cited according to APA.
Format Criteria:
- The presentation should include an audio/video PowerPoint presentation created using Kaltura. The student’s voice must be clearly heard (audio) and the student’s face clearly seen on the video.
- There is no slide length requirements. However, the presentation should be no more than 15-20 minutes in recorded length.
- The presentation should contain appropriate evidence to support the information presented in APA format.
- The presentation slides should be used as cues to topics and key concepts without lengthy sentences and paragraphs- reading information from slides is not professional and therefore not acceptable.
- Students should demonstrate understanding and mastery of content via discussion style presentation.
Technology Requirements
The instructions for using Kaltura are located under Resources.
PowerPoint Tips to ensure a professional and organized presentation:
- All font types, size, and color should be the same throughout the presentation
- The Title slide should contain: student name, course, professor and title of the presentation
- Avoid putting too much information in the slides. Use bullets to highlight main points and then use speaker notes to provide more specifics related to the slide content
- The use of pictures and figures are encouraged, however, avoid overcrowding the slides with pictures and figures
- Follow the rubric requirements in chronological order to ensure an organized flow of content
- Use proper background color so there is good contrast between font color and background.
